The ugly caterpillar.



The ugly caterpillar.

I was walking on the sidewalk, and there was this ugly caterpillar crawling along. Something you would step on when no one was around. Well, all the years have passed by, and I went to this party, and there stood a girl with diamonds in her eyes and a smile that you would die for. She would not look at me or talk to me. But when she spoke, the silence was broke. She said I knew you from a long time ago. I was the ugly fat girl in the front row, and I loved you back then and still do. You just never knew. Then the caterpillar came back to mind.
